Body image has been identified as crucial to clothing provision and fashion consumption (Sproles and Burns 1994). In presenting methodological considerations in researching body cathexis for fashion products, Apeagyei et al. (2007) observed that body measurements alone is not the panacea to solving ...
In this sample population for lower body, 36.4% are small size, 33.3% are medium size, and 30.4% are large size. The sizes developed accommodate 100% of the total sample size, an excellent result. This means that the sizes assigned match all of the samples’ actual body measurements. The...
The most famous universal phenomenon is the Efimov’s prediction1 of the geometric series of three-body bound state levels which occur when two-body state has zero energy, i.e., in the unitary limit. Although the first Efimov candidates were expected in nuclear physics,2,4,4 the first ...
Measurements of skeletal muscle cross-sectional area (SMA) at the level of the third lumbar (L3) vertebra derived from clinical computed tomography (CT) scans are commonly used in assessments of sarcopenia, the loss of skeletal muscle mass and function associated with aging. As SMA is correlated...
The meaning of size is complicated by the enormous variety of shape of particles which makes quantitative assessment difficult. Volume, maximum linear dimension, average dimension, cross sectional area are different measurements which can be made. A considerable range of techniques is or has been used...
The ultrasonic testing method includes the dimensional measurements of an aircraft component, leak detection in fuel engines, aircraft mainframe structure analysis, and flaw detection. The efficiency and adaptability of technologically advanced UT equipment, such as industrial scanners, tube inspection systems...
The need for temperature sensors for safety and precision measurements of the smart automotive equipment, to analyze and produce timely sensor data, is likely to increase because of the miniaturization of the intelligent sensor technology. This is expected to fuel the demand for thermocouple temper...
Personality measurements In the assays for shyness and activity, a black, opaque, cylindrical refuge chamber (the same refuge placed in the holding tank, hereafter, starting refuge) was fixed at the far end of the experimental tank (Fig.1a). A sliding trapdoor (3 × 3 cm) on the sid...
The denominator “35” in the equation represents the duration of the vermicomposting experiments in days. 2.5 Dehydrogenase (DHA) and protease activity The degradation of organic matter is enhanced through the assistance of diverse hydrolytic enzymes, such as DHA and proteases. Measurements of ...
short term32,33. Finally, mammals are well-sampled in many biodiversity datasets, with body size measurements often taken in the field as part of long-standing collection practices. This creates an opportunity to analyze body size across an entire vertebrate clade, and to establish robust ...
